Beth:
Here are my 2 cents.
Generally, speaking, you are in a situation where you can call the shots.
Everyone wants a COTA today. You must decide what is really best for you.
Don't chase the dollar. It's about job satisfaction, not money. The money
will come with the experience. If you plan on going back to school soon, align
yourself with a department that has an excellent tuition reimbursement program.
Usually, hospitals affiliated with colleges fall into this category.
Good luck!!
